Laura Omacini
Massimiliano Galliani Award
ArtVerona 2024

Laura Omacini is the winner of the fourth edition of the Massimiliano Galliani Prize for drawing under 40, promoted by the artMacs Cultural Association and the Municipality of Montecchio Emilia in partnership with ArtVerona. The winner was selected by a professional jury composed of Omar Galliani, artist and member of the artMacs Cultural Association, Fausto Torelli, Mayor of the Municipality of Montecchio Emilia, Elena Pontiggia, art critic and historian, Daniela Ferrari, curator and curator at Mart – Museum of Modern and Contemporary Art of Trento and Rovereto, and Nicola Verlato, artist.

The award was presented by the president of the artMacs Cultural Association, Michelangelo Galliani, accompanied by Anita and Virginia Galliani, Samantha Carapezzi and Laura Intilia.

The official motivation reads: “In Laura Omacini’s work, one can find all the possibilities that the instrument of drawing still offers today in contemporary expression, in continuity with the past and its traditional bearing, even from a technical point of view, innovated by a mature interpretation that succeeds in conveying profound visions. In his work, one grasps the attention to detail, to the margin, to the layering of the gaze on the world and on an interiority capable of capturing the observer, giving rise to a complex reflection”.
